Paper Quilling is a great craft niche to explore and try out – it is so wonderfully inexpensive, can look absolutely stunning and is great for concentration and fine motor skills. Environmentally friendly too! Love love love everything about this wonderful paper craft. We have some great “beginners” quilling projects for kids to try out too.

How to make a Paper Quilled Pineapple Brooch – Procedure:

To start your quilled pineapple brooch, take a toothpick and one quilling strip of yellow. Start wrapping the quilling strip around the toothpick in a circle. Once complete, stick the edge of the strip with glue. You will notice that a circle is formed with a hole in the center, carefully take this circle out.

Repeat this step, and make close to 25 closed coils which have a hole in the center.

Once ready, stick these circles in a horizontal line, attach at least 7 in each line. This will form the centre of your paper quilled pineapple.

Next, you will have to cut out two hexagons for your quilled pineapple. This will be the backing of your paper quilled brooch. Once cut out, stick the coils on one side of one of the sheets, cover it entirely.

Prick the safety pin through the second cut out of the pineapple, and stick the side containing the needle on the backside of the first cutout.
